チャールズディケンズプライベートウォーキングツアー

Stephen is a most remarkable guide. He has a positive, upbeat, personality and laughs readily. He has an amazing amount of information at his fingertips, which he shared in a friendly and engaging fashion throughout the tour. He is passionate about what he does. I’m a huge Charles Dickens fan, and an hour into the tour, my expectations had already been exceeded. Thank you, Stephen, for a fabulous time!

Stephen showed us his incredible knowledge and shared it in such a personable and fun way. We were interested in seeing some of what was old London. We found his Dickens tour to be perfect for this. We found so many out of the way places we would never have known were there. I can't imagine anyone else in the city having a better knowledge and grasp of all the special spots the city has to offer. We plan to return to London and, when we do, one of his tours will be at the top of our list.

Kevin was our tour guide. He was not only knowledgeable about Dickens, but he also knew everything about the history of London and was able to provide us with interesting facts and show us the sights. We learned more from him during this tour than all of our other tours combined. Kevin was also kind and beyond patient with us. Thank you for such a wonderful experience!

Our guide Kevin was fantastic!

from the minute, we met Kevin, we knew we had a great tour guide. His love and passion for his native city poured from him and such an affable and interesting fashion. He shared many secrets about London and many secret little alleys. He told great stories that always had an entertaining and surprising ending. He knows so much and is willing to share everything. I would highly recommend him for anyone.

We thoroughly enjoyed our Dickens walking tour. Our guide conveniently met us at our lodging and we headed over to Borough Market via the tube. We then proceeded over London bridge to the ancient city of Londinium. So many secret alley ways and twists and turns. We saw lots of Dickens sites and with a good side dose of the history of London and some famous movie scenes thrown in too. We ended at the Dickens museum and that was perfect. Our guide Kevin was enthusiastic and knowledgeable and really made the tour. This tour was so good I'd come back to England to take another one! We all highly recommend it!

Kevin was a delight to hang with the duration of our tour. His knowledge, even with the small little details, was amazing. He loves what he does and you can feel the passion in his voice. Thank you for an amazing day. Highly recommend.

Stephen was an incredible guide! His passion and enthusiasm for history made this tour perfect. He took us through parts of London that a regular tourist would never see. His knowledge of Dickens’ history and approach to literature led us through alleys, to find old prisons and workhouses and even the real places that Dickens used as the basis for Scrooge’s home, Little Dorritt’s church. We did the long version of the Dickens tour…wear your walking shoes!! But please know that Stephen is happy to accommodate your need for a rest or a meal…or a quick diversion into a market or bakery for a treat! If you are a Dickens fan or history buff, Stephen Liddell is your man for an interesting trip through London. Look him up, tell him what you want to see and then follow him merrily through the city!

The option to meet at our hotel is why we chose the longer tour. Steven arrived early and took good care of us all morning. My husband is not a Dickens enthusiast and in hindsight it would have been safe for him to entrust me to Steven. I thoroughly enjoyed myself and saw places that Dickens wrote about: Marshalsea Prison and Little Dorrit’s Church were the most emotional for me but seeing where the young Charles Dickens lived while working in the shoe blacking factory brought me to tears.

Kevin was a remarkable guide, knowledgeable and clear in his remarks. He is a walking encyclopedia, a fascinating and beautiful person.
